You’re Only as Good as Your Last Effort 
Whatever you do today, determines your success for tomorrow. If you do not give your best each and every day, on each and every project, to each and every effort, people will question your value the next go-around. To the world, you’re only as good as what you put forth before—what you left people with, a visual, a feeling, an accomplishment, or contrarily, a failure. This doesn’t mean you won’t mess up. But always make sure you’re giving your best. 

Motivation: How Leaders Inspire Effort
As a leader yourself, you may know how difficult it can be to lead an unmotivated team, and how fulfilling it can be to lead a passionate team. So, how does a leader like yourself motivate the people you lead to create powerful, positive impact? 
Today, John Maxwell will teach you about motivation and the 4 P’s that inspire effort in your team. After John’s lesson, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow––the master of motivation herself––will dive into John’s lesson and offer practical, intentional ways you can apply these principles to your life.

Challenge + Positive Attitude = Growth
Take The Uphill Journey = Challenges allow us to make our day really count with our effort and energy. Take on challenges with a positive attitude. Everything worthwhile is uphill—not easy and automatic. Start today, climb uphill and conquer your challenges to experience a fulfilled life!


The Greater the Challenge, the Better the Fulfillment
https://youtu.be/_axO1wudRTg
Show Up For The Challenge = Challenges bring out the best in people. A person who is not challenged remains in their comfort zone, but one who is challenged has a hill to climb. It may be a long, hard effort, tackling the challenge and climbing that hill, but at the top, the scenery is incredible. Though it is often overwhelming in the beginning, fulfilling a challenge brings joy to life. Don’t shrink from the challenge!




Life is Challenging = No one promised it would be easy. Fred Devito once said, "If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you." In order to grow, you must make changes. So today, challenge yourself!




If you want to reach your highest potential, start facing your challenges and stop going after others. Put your time and effort into challenging yourself and reaching new goals. Focus on your heart and dreams, it's okay to be selfish when it comes to your growth!

Alignment Quotes

Quotes About Alignment

  • To attain inner peace you must actually give your life, not just your possessions. When you at last give your life - bringing into alignment your beliefs and the way you live then, and only then, can you begin to find inner peace.
  • True freedom is where an individual's thoughts and actions are in alignment with that which is true, correct, and of honor - no matter the personal price.
  • Whatever it takes, Lord, align my desires with yours, so that my dreams align with your purposes. Let your will be done through me.




Share the Why Behind the What | MWM
Want Real Alignment In Your Teams? Start with the Why = Alignment doesn’t come from mandates—it comes from sharing the vision, listening to concerns, and inviting your team into the process. You don’t need total agreement on every decision, but you do need alignment. Before rolling out your next big change, ask yourself: does everyone understand the why behind the what? Without that, change can feel like noise instead of progress.





Alignment Gives You Maximum Return | MWM
Return, Reward, and Requirements = When you have Alignment, it means you make an effort to take something that is important and use it in a sequence that leads to success. Think about the things that give you your greatest return, your greatest reward, and what is required of you. Are your priorities aligned? Maximize your energy and effort by having alignment in your relationships, priorities, and life. 



Align Your Priorities = Alignment means that you make the effort to take something that is important and put it in a sequence to help you achieve success. Alignment means that you are maximizing your energy and efforts—in your relationships, priorities, and life. When you take the time to put things where they need to be, you will receive the desired return.




When you are in alignment with your energy, you will move in the right direction!

1 Kings 12:20 Now when all of Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned, they sent for him and invited him to visit their assembly, where they installed him as king over all of Israel. Nobody (with the sole exception of the tribe of Judah) would align with David's dynasty.
Proverbs 9:8 (NLT) So don’t bother correcting mockers; they will only hate you. But correct the wise, and they will love you.
Psalm 37:4 ESV Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

The Difference Between Legendary and Average | MWM
https://youtu.be/2bNG98_YPJ0
Focus is the reflection of life greatly lived—by those who know how to put the focus of their activities, energy, finances, and resources in the right area and stay disciplined in that. Get focused in your daily life and in your resources, and meet at the destination. Put your focus in life and leadership to do something great.





The True Definition of Focus | MWM
https://youtu.be/ceGSx3h0ZME
Focus On What Matters Most = Intentional focus can lead to the creation of great things. Accomplishing your goals will not be the result of doing more, but instead, the result of doing what matters more. As you grow you will have to say no to something, many things that are good in order to say yes to something better.



MWM | FOCUS
Choose Where You Focus = Where are you going to focus? Where are you going to place your attention? Where you place your attention influences what you think about. When connecting with others, If you discuss and focus on the things you have in common, then you feel like you are the same kind of person. If you focus on the differences, then you feel like you are butting heads. Choose where you focus, ignore the differences, and focus on the common ground, and connect with what you have in common.


Fix Your Mind on Your Goal | MWM
https://youtu.be/FZEFFQ1Qnyw
Focus On Your Target = The moment you begin to focus on what you want to accomplish, you will receive the energy required to accomplish it. A distracted person lacks energy. When you set your mind to something you desire to accomplish—with concentration and focus—it will energize you. Focus on your target, and you will be filled with energy to accomplish your goals. 


You Can’t Be Known For Everything, But You Must Be Known For Something
Narrow Your Focus = What do you want to be known for? You can’t be known for everything, but you do need to be known for something. Think about your gifts, strengths, and background … What are the few things you can focus on in your leadership and organization?  Focus on what you want to be known for and what you can add value to, and you will experience momentum as a leader.



https://youtu.be/mKHOw1CvcvE
Focus On What's Important = What you focus on expands. If something is important to you, write it down. Put before you what you want to expand, and put behind you what you want to shrink—stay focused on what you want in life. 



What Your Organization Must Be Focusing On
https://youtu.be/c7cHq2uiYIc
Focus On The Customer = Where is the spotlight of your organization shining the brightest? Oftentimes, organizations have an internal focus, shining their “brightest spotlight” on the issues and day-to-day processes of the business.
Conversely, thriving organizations have their spotlight shining the brightest on their customers. They focus on the customers’ problems and how their offerings solve those problems. With this external focus, organizations can gain momentum and become more effective. How can your organization serve the customer better?
